All I want to say to people, man, is, "Yo, you see me walking down the street and I got a little bop in my walk, don't think because I've got a bop in my walk I'm trying to be all that. The bop in my walk is because I'm just like you, man. I bop when I walk." Know what I'm saying? I'm proud. If you see me smiling, standing straight up, gold around my neck, it's not because I'm conceited. It's because I'm proud of what I achieved. I made this. I worked hard for this. That's all this is about.

Dreams don't have deadlines. I'm thinking of doing bigger and better things and having more fun with it.

When I write I consider it a rhyme. In the studio I consider it laying down vocals. Onstage, I'm entertaining; I don't even think about it.

If you don't judge my gold chains, I'll forget the iron chains.

What I don't do is try to like become whoever I'm rapping with. The people who go get an LL album want to hear LL.

You've got to stay focused without being boring - because all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Skinny, but dull.

Nobody is perfect, but life is about choices.
